Sheri Cobb South
Estranged from her husband through her failure to produce an heir, Lady Fieldhurst resolves to repay his neglect by taking a lover. Fate takes a hand when she and her would-be lover enter her bedchamber to find Lord Fieldhurst lying on the floor - with her nail scissors protruding from his neck.
Bow Street Runner John Pickett, 24 years old and new to the Bow Street force, has spent most of his brief career chasing petty thieves and pickpockets. Nothing in his experience has prepared him for low dealings in high society - or for the beautiful young widow who is the chief suspect.

I actually turned this audio off about an hour into it because I was lost and couldn't keep track of who was who. This happens to me when I'm stressed and listening in car between jobs (I am a pet sitter). I listened to something I didn't have to pay as much attention to and came back to this one later. So glad I did. I was able to catch up easily the 2nd time around and caught a great deal of humor I had not noticed first time. The lead character is charming and his love interest was almost inappropriate which really had me puzzled. I'm still a bit puzzled by that and definitely want to listen to more to see where it goes, if anywhere. The mystery is quite good and yes, there are plenty of twists to keep one a little off-balanced.
I was gifted this audio book for an honest review.

John Pickett is now 24 yo old and a Bow Street Runner and in this book he's challenged with his first murder mystery. The story contains amazing characters and many twists and turns. It's filled with a lot of humor as well and it's very hard to put down. If you're a sucker for a cozy, Brit mystery, you don't want to miss this!
Again Joel Froomkin did an amazing job with different voices and several British accents. It's like being there or watching a movie while you listen. I'm so happy to have found another great favorite narrrator!

As far as the audiobook narration, I was not as enamored with the reader as many of the other reviewers were. I felt that his voice sounded way too old for a 24 year old main character. It threw me off a bit, making me think Pickett was much older than he was supposed to be. I eventually got used to it, but it wasn't ideal in my opinion. The reader did a very nice job using distinguishable voices between the different characters. I think his male voices were far better than his female ones (though that is often the case with male readers in general, I think). I'm not 100% sure I would listen to another in the series but I would read one in print. I suggest listening to the sample, if the voice doesn't sound too old for the character and you like it, consider giving the audio a try. Otherwise, I do recommend the book in print.
